Branch, Calhoun, Csss, Grand Traverse,
Gratiot, Ionia, Isabella, kalamazoo, Lake,
Mason, Mecosta, Midland, Montcalm. Neway.
90, Osceola. Otsego, st. Joseph, Tuscola and
Wexford, all counties that gave strong repub-
lican pluralities? Every one of them gave
correspondingly strong prohibition MAORI
ties. And what is true of those counties is
true of many others, indeed with nearly all
the republican counties of the state. There
were but three or four instances in the state
where counties that gave clear republican
majority voted against the amendment.
How was the fact in reference to demo
cratic counties? First there was the
county of Wayne, the great democratic
stronghold of the state, which alone gave
over $4,000 majority against it, if the demo-
cratic count of the ballots is to be relied
upon. which is more than doubtful. Without
the adverse vote of this great breeding place
of democrats, the amendment would have
been adopted by a majority away up in the
thousands. What about Bay county, another
democratic stronghold? Over $500 against
the amendment. Macomb, Monroe and
washtenaw, all bourbon counties? Every
one of them gave big majorities against the
amendment. Go TO Saginaw. Strongly
democratic and rolling up nearly 6,O00
majority in favor of whiskey. What was
the result in Alpena and Cheboygan2 Both
democratic and both voting against the
amendment. In fact, SO far as the official
returns have been received at this writing,
the only county in the state that gave dem
ocratic plurality for the state ticket and
prohibition majority was Chippewa, and the
entire county cast only about thousand
votes, giving GRIFFIN 10 plurality and the
amendment 1l6 majority.
In view of these figures, it is the rankest
kind of partisan prevarication to lay the
blame for the defeat of the amendment at
the door of the republican party. The Off
cial canvass shows that the big prohibition
majorties came from strong republican
counties and that it was the strongholds of
the bourbon democracy that voted for the
whiskey traffic. "By their fruits ye shall
know them"

TIE railroads seem determined to put a
forced and strained construction on the
inter state commerce law, so as TO compel the
"dear people" to pay more money into their
Golfers than they did under the old system.
A bill is pending before the Legislature of
Michigan TO reduce the rate of fare TO two
cents per mile. BY all means let it become
law, especially as far as the great lines are
concerned. We do not believe it would be
just to the short roads to include them in
the bill, as three cents is probably as low a
rate as they can afford; but two cents is
ample on the long lines. Let their managers
be taught that the people have some rights
that they are bound to respect, lesson that
they are exceedingly slow to learn, princi-
pie upon which they will not act unless COM
PEELED by the strong arm of the law.

ALDERMAN AMOS. a member of the Way

ALDERMAN AMOS, a member OF the Wayne
county canvassing board, said that he thought
the prohibitionists had been treated with too
much courtesy; that the filing of the pro-
test by an insignificant handful of cranks, as
he termed them, was in itself an act of dis
courtesy; that these people sought to die
tate what a man should eat and drink, and
that he thought the people would be justified
in stuffing ballot-boxes or in using clubs to
prevent the carrying out of any such ideas.
1t is nonsense to expect a free ballot and a
fair count of votes with the election machin-
cry of Detroit in the hands and under the
control of such men as this.

THT bill Ito secure to women citizens who
are otherwise qualified, the right to vote at
town, city and other municipal elections
was considered by the house on Tuesday of
last week. After discussion, tho bill was
killed by striking ont all after the enacting
clause, the vote standing fifty in favor of
such action and thirty-three against. Mr..
SIMPsoN. our representative, recorded himself
among the fifty opponents of the measure.
Wedesire to say to the gentlemen who so voted
that they are standing in the path of the
car of progress" which will continue to
roll on in spite of their opposition. We pre-
dict that some of those fifty men who voted
against comforting this limited suffrage on
the women of Michigan will live long enough
to see them enjoy the right to vote as broad
as their own. That the world moves, is as
true in the present age as it was in the days
of CALICO.

SINon the defeat of the prohibitory amend
ment, the temperance sentiment of the state
seems to be crystallizing in favor of a county
local option law, with increased taxation and
restrictions in such counties as do not
choose TO adopt prohibition. 1t appears as
though that was the most available and
practicable method Of dealing with the drink
evil under the circumstances. Several such
measures are pending before the Legislature,
and there is strong probability that some
such law will he enacted. The Legislature
will not satisfy the people of the state unless
it makes some radical changes in the liquor
laws, looking in the direction of the suppress
sion and more stringent regulation of the
traffic.

THIRTY thousand is about the plurality b

THIRTY thousand is about the plurality by
which the republican state ticket was elected
on the 4th inst. This ought to be and is
very satisfactory and indicates that republi-
canism did not suffer, as its enemies hoped
and predicted, by fulfilling its pledge of sub
mission. The most brilliant republican VIC
tories have been won when some great
political and moral principle was at issue.
The party need have no fear for the result
whenever it espouses the cause OF right. Let
1t take advanced ground on the temperance
questionable great question of the hour
and, while it may lose some votes thereby,
it's gains will exceed its losses.

A MAJORITY of 2,989 for circuit Judge is
large enough for all practical purposes, and
that is what the people of the 9th judicial
circuit gave Judge BUoK. $40 in Kalama-
ZOO county and 1900 in Van Buren,. A long
personal acquaintance with the newly elected
judge convinces us that the people have
made no mistake in bestowing this honor.
He is eminently qualified to perform the
duties of the Office to which he has been 30
triumphantly elected, and is genial, christian
gentleman.

Two causes operated to defeat the prohib-
Had either one of these causes been absent,
there can be no doubt that it would have
carried in spite OF the efforts of its opponents,
in spite of the vast sum of money that was
expended TO secure its defeat and in spite of
ali the frauds that may have been perpetrsted
by dishonest election boards. The first of
these causes was the folly of the third party
prohibitionists in putting state ticket into
the field, followed up in many places 10y the
nomination of local tickets. We do not pre-
tend to say that any man was justified in
voting against the measure because of the
course of the prohibition party; on the con
.trary, we say now as before election that, in
our Judgment, its course ought not 10 have
influenced anybody to oppose the measures
but, nevertheless, there is no gainsaying the
fact that it did turn away good many voters
who would otherwise have supported IT. more
than enough TO have overcome the small
majority by which it was defeated The
other cause was the unfortunate weather that
prevailed on election day. Had the weather
been rs pleasant as it was day or two
before or few days after. there is little
doubt that the amendment would have
been ratified. An inspection Of the
returns verifies what was understood before.
that the principal opposition to the measure
was in the cities and its main support in the
rural districts. The city vote, being near
the polls, could be cast as well during
storm as on pleasant day. while a large
proportion of the rural vote, being at a dis
lance from the polls, did not and could not
come out in the midst of bowling blizzard
as fully as il would otherwise have doue.
This last cause was something that could not
be helped, but the first one could have been
and should never have been allowed to exist,
and those who are responsible for it should
be made to share the responsibility of the
defeat.

Gov. HUI of New York, has identified
himself with the liquor men of his state BY
vetoing the high license bill passed by the
legislature of that state. He thought the
bill was aimed at some of his democratic
constituencies, at least he so expressed himself
in his veto message. Possibly he has also
identified himself with the third party pro-
hibitionists, as they joined with the liquor
men in their opposition to the bill.

The acquittal of Arensdorf was dis

drawn from the acquittal the infer

They propose to use their victory.
A few days ago a gold headed cane
was presented to Mr.. Erwin, the lead

course, business men" means brew
ers, and the real business men of the
place do not dare to protest. They are
plainly told that "they had better
keep quiet" Any one who ventures
to express indignation, or even dissent,
is threatened with boycott, or worse.
After the fate of Haddock, it is sup
posed that men less stalwart than he
will take warning. And Mr.. Erwin's
glorfication of the murder is bearing
its legitimate fruit. One of his fellow
attorneys for the defense, at the meet
ing Monday, drank to the toast
Here's to the man who removed the
preacher. That seems to be the sem
timent of the dominant liquor faction.
An attempt has been made since the
Monday meeting to put the real bust

paper was circulated denouncing the
murder of Haddock, and declaring
that the state officials should be up
held in pushing the case. We are told
that many of the richest and most in
huential citizens refused to sign, and
that a number that did sign after
wards took their names from the pa.
per, for fear their business would be
hurt.
1t is not easy for the citizens of a
law-abiding community to realize this
state of affairs. Here is murder that
is done with impunity. The murder
ers are acquitted and glorifed. No
